    Breast feeding in the most natural thing in the world. This woman has figured out a way to work whilst still providing for her uncle and her baby. She should be commended!

    Don't mind me, I roll easier either way. Notice the jk message at the bottom of my last message.

    Anyway, you don't know the limits until you push the boundaries a little.

    Checked CL today, and there was a tag sale...with Firewood!!!!

    http://hudsonvalley.craigslist.org/gms/4122212028.html

    They are getting $100 a cord. Got this for $75. Almost a cord if not a cord. Was stacked on two 4' pallets four feet high. Was under cover, and 95% Ash. Tested out at 19% moisture on a fresh split. Had to be at least two years seasoning. The pallets were shot. Split one piece of 6"x8" Red Oak that tested 22%. I'm feeling like I did ok, and won't have to get the BioBricks or kiln dried. Now I'm over six cord, and have to run out and pick up a couple pallets. Luckily the place is close. Then I have to figure out where to stack it. Oh, noooo?

    Forgot to say, there were about 10 cord total, and someone had picked up one this morning. Tomorrow I'm sure it'll all go.

    http://www.desmoinesregister.com/article/20030914/ENT/70323017/Is-Des-Moines-just-some-dirty-joke-

    From another, shorter winded site: Linguistic research has shed new light on the meaning of 'Des Moines.' Turns out it might derive from a 330-year-old practical joke. In 1673 Father Jacques Marquette met some representatives of the Peoria indian tribe near the mouth of the modern-day Des Moines River. He asked them the name of the rival tribe that lived further along the banks of the river. The Peoria told him that tribe was called the Moingoana, which became the root for the word 'Moines'. But researcher Michael McCafferty of Indiana University, while studying the now extinct Miami-Illinois language, discovered that Moingoana, translated literally, meant 's**t faces.' Evidently the Peoria were having a little fun at their rival's expense. The city of Des Moines has not yet acknowledged the true meaning of its name.

    The modern translation of that most definitely refers to the drivers in the metro area.Among the most rude,ignorant & careless I've ever seen anywhere. Can also refer to our City Council,Board Of Supervisors,the Mayor's Office & School Board,depending on who you talk to....:rofl: :lol:

    It worked out to just about 3/4 of a cord when stacked. Still worth it for what I needed.
